So he's gonna run a winery into the ground now?
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end . . .

Clearly, calling it more properly 'exclusive whines' was not getting him anywhere.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

Order of Christ Cross

Cross symbol of Portugal

The Cross of the Order of Christ (Portuguese: Cruz da Ordem de Cristo), also known as the Cross of Christ (Cruz de Cristo) or the Portuguese Cross (Cruz Portuguesa), is a cross symbol of Portugal, originating in the Portuguese Order of Christ, founded in 1319. During the time of Prince Henry the Navigator, the cross came to be associated with the Portuguese discoveries and the Portuguese Empire. The cross can be considered a variant of the cross pattée or the cross potent.

Ah, I see, thanks for that. I guess since they harnessed the techniques, they've harnessed the cross as well!
Devin enlisted his longtime friend and award winning winemaker Mike Sinor to create these fine wines. Together they've harnessed the classic techniques of Portugal, such as time-honored grape varieties and meticulous aging, to create wines that exude elegance and richness. These wines are a testament to Devin's dedication and meticulous attention to detail.

So smarmy. The suit against the DevinNunesCow twitter account is still active, afaik. Devin touted his dairy farmer bona fides forever in his campaigns, even though it turns out his family's dairy farm moved from CA to Iowa in the mid-2000's. This amazing article is from 2018 but boy, it's a good one, including the journalist being threatened and lots of good juicy dirt. If you hate Nunes, you'll love this article.
So here’s the secret: The Nunes family dairy of political lore—the one where his brother and parents work—isn’t in California. It’s in Iowa. Devin; his brother, Anthony III; and his parents, Anthony Jr. and Toni Dian, sold their California farmland in 2006. Anthony Jr. and Toni Dian, who has also been the treasurer of every one of Devin’s campaigns since 2001, used their cash from the sale to buy a dairy eighteen hundred miles away in Sibley, a small town in northwest Iowa where they—as well as Anthony III, Devin’s only sibling, and his wife, Lori—have lived since 2007. Devin’s uncle Gerald still owns a dairy back in Tulare, which is presumably where The Wall Street Journal’s reporter talked to Devin, and Devin is an investor in a Napa Valley winery, Alpha Omega, but his immediate family’s farm—as well as his family—is long gone.
Maybe this wine is from that Napa winery.
Don't miss reading this amazing article. https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a ... alifornia/
